Northern Lights

March 1, 2013 - May 5, 2013

In a search for the sublime, subliminal and seminal, Northern Lights celebrates the creative wealth of women artists in the northern suburbs of Melbourne whose diverse backgrounds and experiences are connected by location

The majestic landscape and its human intervention are seen in the work of Rosalind Atkins, Peta Clancy, Georgina Cue, Aunty Gwen Garoni, Siri Hayes, Anna Hoyle, Rebecca Mayo and Polixeni Papapetrou. Interior explorations - architectural, domestic and anatomic - are revealed in the work of Louise Blyton, Katherine Hattam, Viv Miller, Hilary Jackman and Clare Rae. Characterisation and the investigation of personality and psyche can be discovered in the work of Helen Kocis Edwards, Rachel Feery, Jacqui Stockdale and Sarah Veli.

Northern Lights features 31 artists practicing in the disciplines of painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking, tapestry, installation and new media.
